(11) To validate the repeated use of radionuclide equilibrium angiography for determining left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) and end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes (EDV and ESV), 25 patients were studied on an hourly basis an average of 9.1 days after acute myocardial infarction.
(12) Myocardial changes in the patients with advanced CAL were relatively mild, and low EF and abnormal regional wall motion were not always related to severity of CAL.

(15) The binding of the dinucleotide 5'-triphosphate to EF-1 was also demonstrated directly by the nitrocellulose retention method and by Sephadex G-50 fractionation using a radioactive analog iodinated with 125I in the 5 position of the cytosine of pppGpC.
(16) Both the beta 2-adrenoceptor agonist, procaterol (0.1 nM to 3 nM) and theophylline (100 nM to 1 mM) concentration-dependently reduced EFS-induced NANC contractions without significant effect on SP (1 microM)-induced contractions.
(17) Patients with hyperdiploid (47 to 50) ALL treated in a contemporary program of multiagent chemotherapy had a significantly better outcome than did those in an earlier study using less intensive therapy (4-year EFS = 75% [95% confidence interval, 55% to 86%] v 41% [22% to 59%]; P = .006 by the logrank test).
(18) These changes in EF were accompanied by the development of wall motion abnormalities, which occurred in segments of myocardium that were supplied by coronary arteries with angiographic CAD (more than 50% diameter narrowing).
(19) A central region in the primary structure of IF2 shows extensive sequence homology with a number of GDP-binding proteins and especially with the G-domain of elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu).
(20) (2) The four EF hands are arranged in two pairs with overall symmetry, 222.
